WE MADE IT!

WE PASSED COURT!!!!! I am officially the mother to this beautiful baby girl. May I present to you the fabulous Miss Peanut. For privacy reasons we aren't revealing her name on my blog. But I can tell you her first name means "sweet face" and it is a name Dave and I picked for her. Her middle name is her birth name and it means "most beautiful one" and her second middle name is the same as my mom's and mine. This first picture is her referral picture. Isn't she precious?


This is may very favorite picture of her from the social report. You can see the love the nanny has for her. She has such a sweet face.
Tummy time in action :)

Now we wait for a birth certificate that lists us as her parents. Once we get that we are leaving on a jet plane to bring this sweet baby girl home. Hopefully we will have a birth certificate in the next 1-2weeks and then we can travel 2 or so weeks after that. This a very exciting time :) Is it too early in the day for champagne.
